«No! I Don't Want to Join a Bookclub» is the humorous novel by Virginia Ironside, published by Penguin UK in hardback (256 pages, in English).
Marie Sharp, about to turn sixty, rejects the book club she is offered and faces old age with humour and irreverence. Her diary addresses love, sex, family and the small joys of middle age, such as her newborn grandson. A blend of grumpy acerbity and tenderness with which the author portrays ageing.
First instalment of the Marie Sharp series; the action takes place during the protagonist's sixtieth year.
For those who enjoy British humour and contemporary fiction featuring mature women who face their sixties with irony.
Virginia Ironside is a British journalist, agony aunt and author. Born in London, she is the daughter of Christopher Ironside, painter and coin designer, and Janey Ironside who was the first professor of fashion design at the Royal College of Art. She is the niece of the painter and designer Robin Ironside.
